Lisa and Mark Cosgrove - Owners

(and Chief Taste Testers)

Have you met Lisa and Mark Cosgrove? They look like well-seasoned food entrepreneurs but their story is not all food. Lisa started an IT career in the corporate world while Mark spent time honing his skills in the construction business. Before that, Lisa found her passion in baking, specializing in low-fat muffins and scones which she distributed to local farmers’ markets. Mark was no slouch in the epicurean world, being a trained culinary chef who worked during Philadelphia Renaissance restaurant scene.

As time flew by, they realized that food was their calling and decided to jump back in and partner in a successful Montreal-Style bagel business. So far, so good. Until they decided to venture out on their own with the Bakeshop on Twentieth. Today Lisa covers all that is sweet and satisfying while Mark handles the savory and downright delicious.

The Bakeshop on Twentieth is a new and much welcomed addition to the Rittenhouse Square area of Philadelphia. Noted in Zagat’s 6 New Hottest Bakeries in Philadelphia,Thrillist, and Philadelphia Magazine, the locals are loving the aromas of fresh baked pastries and breakfast sandwiches.

Kimmel Center Presents: "Phillys best pie recipe contest" winner

As a graduate of Temple University’s Tourism and Hospitality Management program, Jessica Stern always knew that she would somehow end up working in the food and beverage industry. However, when she began, she had no idea that her passion and dedication would lead her to her dream career of becoming a baker. While she began her journey working front of the house positions at some of Philadelphia’s finest restaurants, it didn’t take long for her to realize that her true calling was baking. What started as a hobby quickly became her way of life, and she has never looked back. Jessica has worked under some of the most talented pastry chefs in Philadelphia, and is extremely grateful for this opportunity to be working at the Bakeshop on Twentieth, where creativity and experimentation are so highly encouraged. The Bakeshop is thrilled to have such a creative and talented baker lead the team. Her Trifecta Bars, Dunkeroo Cookies, and giant "Pop-tart" style pastry has created a social media stir. And as a founding member of the shop, Jess has lead us to where we are today.
